Canoeing & Kayaking: Anyone expecting a leisurely cruise is in for a surprise – whilst it’s not a white-water rafting trip, it does demand quite a bit from novice paddlers: rapids, boat slides and transfers alternate with calm stretches. For nature conservation reasons, this activity is only available between 1 May and 30 September.
Pottenstein Adventure Park – a leisure park with 12 attractions; entry is free – you only pay for what you use
